NOTES OF PROGRESS.
Things are stirring at Anaheim. The
new railroad is graded through
the town, across the wash, through
Fullerton, west through Orangethorpe
to the Coyote House, and will soon be
up on the mesa shooting straight for
the springs. The Hotel Del Campo
contract is let to the Albrecht Bros.
an Anaheim firm, and it will be fin
rsbed in ninety days. Then Anaheim
will have three fine hotels. The Sis
tiers are waiting anxiously for deed
from the Dreyfus estate to their
lots in order that they may
proceed with the building OF
their academy. The Town Trustees
are about to lay water pipes along
cypress street for distance OF several
Thousand feet. The water company
is pushing things on their big reser-
voir.
A company OF railroad contractors
with large force of men from Colo
RADIO is expected every day to go on
with grading the railroad from Ana
helm to Orange. This company will
construct the big bridge over the Santa
Ana river. Progress is reported on
the proposed new road from Ana
helm to the landing. Capitalists
in San Francisco and Los An
geles have had their interest enlisted
in the project 1t is sure to 60
through at an early day. Its advan-
tages to Anaheim will he very great.
The l,el Campo people are laying
cement sidewalks along their tract,
Center street is being graded, new
houses are seen going up all around
the town, and in the country up by
North Anaheim and Placentia as
we'll. The new hotel at Full.
erton is nearly finished, and
will soon be open to guests. New
corners from the Western States are
coming in rapidly and settling in the
towns OF Anaheim, in Fullerton, at
Placentia and all around the country.
ANAHEIM TO THE FRONT.
The attractions of Anaheim and its
vicinity are becoming well known.
The pure climate. excellent soil, per-
feet drainage, absence of dust, abund-
ance of water and such elements
of the situation are getting to be
we'll understood. Should people rec.
ognize the fact that property is held
here at less than fifty per cent. OF the
prices held in other places, they see
that as water seeks its level, the in
trinsic value Of lands at Anaheim
will push prices up to the ranges OF
the other most eclectic spots in Los
Angeles County, and that
there will be big day
of reckoning with a large balance in
favor of those who buy now.

The hotel destroyed by fire at San

day received telegram from Senator Harris
saying that committee of 100 citizens of
Memphis was coming to Washington to in
vite him to visit that city during his West

in reply TO use his influence 10 prevent any
movement of the sort. He says that while
he will always be pleased to SEE the people of
Tennessee at the Capitol, he thinks that they
ought to be spared long journey to Wash

of this sort when an invitation sent by mail
would be as effective and as much appreci-

Similar answers will besent TO other West
ern cities where arrangements are being
made to send invitation bearing committees
to Washington. Ii is stated at the White
House that the President will give the same
consideration to invitations received by
mail rs to those borne by committees no
matter how large and impressive the latter
may be.

that Hagan was unconscious and dying with
a bullet iii his breast, In his pocket was
found a revolver with two chambers empty,
